Element Technica, whose Technica 3-D Rigs precisely position a pair of cameras to achieve realistic stereoscopic digital video for broadcast and cinema, is now delivering the first new Quasar 3-D Rigs.

The Quasar is designed to accommodate full-size digital cinema cameras like the Sony F23 and F35, Red One, Panavision Genesis, as well as full-body and box-type digital broadcast cameras like the Sony F950 and 1500, Philips LDK and others. The Quasar is a platform for matching zoom or prime lenses to accommodate any shooting style or format.

Prior to introduction of the Technica 3-D Rigs, 3-D production typically used heavy equipment requiring specialized tools and a dedicated crew. The Technica 3D series overcomes these stumbling blocks by providing 3-D systems that are lighter in weight and less costly — bringing 3-D acquisition down to the simplicity of traditional 2-D production.

Technica 3-D rigs require only a set of Allen wrenches and a mirror gauge for complete camera/lens installation and precise alignment, which can be completed in less than 15 minutes as opposed to the hours required with other professional 3-D systems.

Technica 3-D systems will soon be available in three different sizes. The largest system, Quasar, the mid-sized Pulsar mounts box-style digital cinema cameras such as the Scarlet, Epic and the Si-2k. The ultra-small neutron is designed for the tiny 2/3in or 1/3in imager cameras using C-mount lenses such as the Si-2k Mini and the Iconix. All three Technica 3-D systems can convert from parallel to beam-splitter configuration and back, depending on the application.
